News, Schools After a tentative agreement was reached between the Washougal School District and its teachers’ union, the teachers did not approve the contract.
The district and the Washougal Association of Educators reached a tentative agreement last week.
Another meeting with the teachers will be scheduled for the second week of school, and the WAE negotiations team will set a time with the district to resume bargaining.
WAE members and the district have been in negotiations since the beginning of summer, and locked horns over class sizes, elementary grade-level blends and teacher compensation.
“We believe the agreement fairly and equitably compensates our teachers,” said Mike Stromme, superintendent, in a press release sent over the Labor Day weekend. “We value their commitment to our students and families.”
